OPB's New BH-5 records(FSB) on DFI SLI-DR

[MrIcee]

Just checking it with the booster, up to now I'm running BH-5 12 x 275 2-2-2-5 with 3,9 Vdimm for two weeks constantly without problems....

Just a friendly warning I too spent weeks at 3.8v and above, then one day you will not post, and the debug card will leave you at C1, "trying to detect memory". Believe me, I've been thru enough A64's in testing since their release to know, and the reason I discontinued buying OEM

p1 there is no way tccd can do 2-2-2-x 1t ddr600 , not even DDR500..weird huh?

Randi, yup I totally agree that..C1..

O.K. - thanks for advice - I'll only have to keep board alive a few days at that voltage, than getting my DFI NF4.

On that board I'll give my G.Skill 4800LA another chance to go over 300 1:1 with lower voltages.

the right pair of the pic is what I used.
I took the heatspreaders out,
and all you can see here, mushkin use two different date code BH-5 IC to make a double side 256mb stick.(338wf and 334wf)

I've always been a great fan of BH-5 and tried more than 50 different pairs on NF2 - almost all CORSAIR and MUSHKIN and I found out that CORSAIR always performed a little better. Also same experience now on NF3.

It also could've been that AN50R..

Hey opb thats undeniably xtreme stuff, though whats the highest you took your bh-5 on :

3.2v

3.4v and

3.6v

...for those that cant do 4v with their boards.

Thanks in advance.

I would've thought that Sandra Memory benchmark would've been a little higher. Maybe it's just the 10x multiplier.

That's the reason for sure - bandwith on A64 always depends on the CPU speed so a low multi decreases Your bandwith.

[Revv23]

Incredible.
I have that same RAM, but with my board and no DDR Booster I can only do 2.85v. My poor BH5.

i think you mean his poor BH-5, BH-5 continues to amaze me as far as how it handles voltage...

[jmke]

Im guessing there harder to fake.

if you fake a benchmark results with photoshop and then take a digicam pic of it, why would it be harder to fake?

there is no reason for taking a digicam pic of the results imho, could only hide instabilities

[Littleluk]

239 ° CPU Temperature? Wtf?!

[jmke]

DFI system monitor does not support sub zero temps

[Onepagebook]

239 ° CPU Temperature? Wtf?!

ya, 256--->0c
then 239= -17c

[Onepagebook]

if you fake a benchmark results with photoshop and then take a digicam pic of it, why would it be harder to fake?

no, you can't do that AND take a digicam pic on it. becuase when you take your digicam pic for your results, you can see the task bar for how many types of application you are running .

[HARDCORECLOCKER]

Yep - so I never understood why people fake screenies - there is no sense in it, we are all here to help each other and to get better results, also for discussing problems and solving them so faking a screenie is like pissing in Your own pocket.

[jmke]

no, you can't do that AND take a digicam pic on it. becuase when you take your digicam pic for your results, you can see the task bar for how many types of application you are running .

uhm.. Print screen + photoshop + view altered image full-screen, together with adjusted "task bar"

really.. there is NO need for digicam shots, they can be faked as well, saying that you include them to proof your shots are "real" is not needed

OPB: what do you think about this mems with DFI nF4 in Dual?
Have you tested singlesided BH-5 with that mobo?

These mems on pic 2*256mb singlesided KHX3000 BH-5, did 273FSB 2-2-2-11 1T Dual 1:1 3.7V on DFI nF2 (SuperPi1M)

Hi Dani,
"I think"(actually, this concept is from Oskar)
the only difference between single and double side ram in terms of performance tune up is that Dram drive strength.

If you have single side ram, go with odd numbers of level setting like 1,3,5,7
while you need to set it as even number like 2,4,6,8 if you have double side ram.

You can do it, if you want.
And you don't have to do digicam shots, we trust you

Nah, I know you guys trust me, just show my sincerity to XS here.

[Dani]

THX OPB, will try those mems someday with my brand new Ultra-D

THX OPB - You always suprise us again with something new - myself didn't know that.......

does this mean we dont have to worry about cpc if we set the dram drive strength right?

[TEDY]

dani you mean DFI NF3 not DFI NF2 ?
